This is going to be remembered fondly in the same way Jerry Ford’s pardon of Dick Nixon is

Someone out there decided it would be a good idea to put a German Shepherd in charge of babysitting a bunch of Doberman puppies and they were 100% correct

Your daily dose of cuteness

Here’s a feed cleanser. Dogs catching treats.

I feel like my most boomer trait is that I refuse to download an app to look at a restaurant menu. 😎

Happy Shoulda Finished The Job Day

This is so well done. 👌

it is very important to remember that the confederates were both traitors and big stupid losers who got their asses kicked

Ok I'm bored and want to procrastinate work so let's do a thread instead. Wanna hear a story? Alright then, story it is. So gather around, children, because now we're going to talk about the most important science book you've probably never heard of. Ready? Off we go, then.

Same, but OCaml

This is so, so well-articulated.

For people saying the Artemis program is a waste of money that should go to the poor/hungry/sick/uneducated etc. I understand. You've probably seen this cartoon. The man on the right with one cookie is NASA. The man in the middle is the Pentagon with 37 cookies. From whom do you take a cookie?

Father disappearance…

it is the postal SERVICE not the postal BUSINESS thank you for your time

“Bitch, what?”

More and more I want the consequences for the billionaires, politicians, appointees, and lackeys who are committing crimes for Trump to be devastatingly financial. Take all their money. ALL OF IT. And garnish their wages forever. Let them live off of whatever UBI gets passed in the next admin.

Not terrible. Not great, but not terrible.

Same

If you're in the game industry and use LinkedIn, please do me a favor and share my post about Sentona Games screwing me out of money I'm owed. Thank you

Today is the four year anniversary of the barbaric full scale invasion against the peaceful people of Ukraine. Peaceful, until roused to defend themselves…. Slava Ukrainii

This is some spectacular video

seeing news about a "memory shortage." it's not a shortage. billionaires who hate you hoarded it all so they could make everything worse and stupider and more expensive, just like with most shortages

Went to VCF SoCal today and there was a PDP-8 in a new-to-me color scheme. Learned to program on one of these in 1973. @adventofcomp.bsky.social gave a hilarious talk about INTERCAL, the Compiler Language With No Pronounceable Acronym

This’ll put a smile on your face. Sound on

William Shakespeare, 400 years ago. 👏

If you campaigned for the presidency on a promise to destroy these assholes, you would win a landslide the size of FDR in 1936, when he campaigned on a promise to destroy these assholes.

Ummmm…

This thread is simultaneously high comedy and deep tragedy

Downfall Bovino Edition. You're welcome.

Awesome. I know so many people to send this to…

It seems like yesterday and it seems like ten thousand years. What a great strip

perfect metaphors don’t exis—

Oh, this is too cute

For comparison, every robotic mission NASA has ever sent in its history, from the dawn of the Space Age 65 years ago to today, from Mercury to Pluto and beyond, has cost less than $40B. I know which one has done more for humankind and which one should be dismantled.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

of course this is the usual incoherent Trump nonsense, but it’s not just him we are fifteen (15) years into Obamacare and not a single Republican has ever articulated a coherent alternative

imagine if all tech ceos were like this instead of being greedy to the point of absurd evil

light has a quality called “polarization” which corresponds to the direction of the electric field in the wave many animals have eyes adapted to see polarization—but with some effort, human discernment of light polarization is a learnable skill! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haiding...

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Repost this everywhere you’re active on social media. Send to your friends and family who aren’t.

If you need me, tap me on the shoulder. I’ll be happily working all day listening to this on a loop.
